An Axia College Online associate degree can be earned in less
than two years. Axia College also accepts applicable transfer
credits from other regionally or nationally accredited institutions
of higher learning. With transfer credits, students can graduate
even faster.
The Axia College Online learning software was developed in
partnership with Microsoft. It provides an extremely reliable
and friendly, 100% online learning environment. The online
environment is asynchronous. This allows students to attend
class at times that are most convenient for their own schedule.
All interaction among students and instructors is conducted
in this asynchronous manor. This allows everyone to participate
when it is most convenient for them. The only "attendance"
requirement placed upon students is that they are required
to log into class 3 days a week. Students can log into class
at any time on any day. This flexibility allows students to
obtain an education while tending to other substantial work
and life responsibilities.
Axia College Online also has expert instructors. All Axia
instructors hold a master's or doctoral degree. In addition,
they all have been specially trained to proactively assist
students in the online learning process. Axia also offers
24/7 technical support via the Internet and over the phone.
Because it is designed for students with little or no college
experience, the Axia College program offers the highest level
of student support, small classes of less than 20 students,
and dedicated faculty who are specially trained in facilitating
the online learning experience. In addition, Axia College
features a tuition rate comparable to many state universities.
Key advantages of Axia College:
